I'm not really sure on the details, but we lost another Dragon. I hear she was walking down the street and got hit by a car, which caused the end of this Freshman girl's life. :/ It's really sad, it looks like she was a really happy, colorful person.

Yeah I heard about that. It really makes you feel really shitty about yourself. Like if every day you sat next to a stranger on the bus, and one day that stranger was gone. It makes you feel as if you could have done something, *shrugs*.
Pat, Ryan, Colin, and Kevin played 'Knocking on Heaven's Door' for her at Colin's party. They did it really well too.

I hope she didn't suffer much. ._. Kingsway seems to be teaching us dark life lessons every year.

It's horrible. =/ I feel so bad for her family and friends...
This is what I'v heard about the incident:
She was, apparently, a middle-school girl-- eighth grade, if I've heard right, and she was on her phone with her boyfriend at the time she was hit. She was put into a coma, and the doctors had to amputate one of her arms, too, because it was so badly damaged.
Eventually, they knew that she was too badly damaged to be kept alive, and they waited until the family and boyfriend's family came to the hospital to take her off life support.
What had me feeling the worst, though, was that thefact that her high-school aged brother ran out of the hospital building, yelling at the sky and telling his little sister to "come back" and "not to leave him". He also called her cellphone and left several messages. =/
R.I.P. Devon. T^T

So much drama, so much saddness, so much grief comes to the many people who die's family. Whether it is alone or next to their lover's side, the impact is, if not already, all the same.
I know many people who knew her and I feel for them, those who know me should recall what happened to me with Erin when she died. Devon was hit outside the home of a very close aquatience from Spanish class I sit next to. She's had 5 friends die now, and compared to that- I have no words to say in reply. I ask her how she is everyday, and want to comfort her- but don't know how, even with my expertiece in things such as this (more so from before 8th grade). I was told by everyone that I can't help helping people, and its the truth. It made me want to cry knowing I couldn't do a thing.
((I was like that at Kindergarten- a boy threw up and I cried so much I made my stomach sick, all because I couldn't help him. Helping is in my blood......))
Today, the sorrow of lost loved ones is hard to deal with, and it takes a lot of time. I'm still not over Erin leaving us, but I see her mom a lot more then usual because she's a hairdresser and cuts my hair. She's my mum's best friend too, and we sometimes will bring her up- and I can tell Mrs. Patti's crying inside..... but its of joy not sorrow- and that's what keeps me going. I asked myself, along with others without a doubt....'Why Erin? Why our gorgeous Erin?!'
I have a respect for Devon, and to my known relations who knew her personally. She rests in heaven peacefully, and I pray for her now.... for her brother.....for her family to be at ease..... its all i can do now.
I ask that nobody steals this poem I made this past October. It was for my mother's extremely close friend who died after suffering for years of an unknown cause of kidney, liver and lung problems and is special to me. Complements are alright if you want to make some, but it's only because of its meaning I ask such acts to not be done. Thanks! =D

If I could just stay longer If I had one more chance Just to say 'I love you' or go into the past. What would I do different? What would stay the same? My love for you is eternal and that I'd never change.
And so my darlings here I am Looking down on you. I don't think I've been prouder to see each thing you do. I'll live my life in heaven each day I'll spread my wings To hear you in the chorus where more angles here you sing.
My time was very short; I know, but please do understand everything I've been though is all part of God's plan. Weep no more and rest assured I'll see you in your dreams.
The gates have finally opened for me my soul flies ever high As I watch you all my dear ones and I look though Heaven's eyes.
